On the hamiltonicity of the cartesian product
نویسندگان
چکیده
We examine the hamiltonicity of the cartesian product P = G1 ×G2 of two graphs G1, G2. We provide necessary and/or sufficient conditions for P to be hamiltonian, depending on the hamiltonian properties of G1 and G2, with corresponding constructions. We also prove a conjecture by Batagelj and Pisanski related to the ‘cyclic hamiltonicity’ of a graph.

The reliability Wiener number of cartesian product graphs
Reliability Wiener number is a modification of the original Wiener number in which probabilities are assigned to edges yielding a natural model in which there are some (or all) bonds in the molecule that are not static. Various probabilities naturally allow modelling different types of chemical bonds because chemical bonds are of different types and it is well-known that under certain condition...
متن کاملSecret Sharing Based On Cartesian product Of Graphs
The purpose of this paper is to study the information ratio of perfect secret sharing of product of some special families of graphs. We seek to prove that the information ratio of prism graphs $Y_{n}$ are equal to $frac{7}{4}$ for any $ngeq 5$, and we will gave a partial answer to a question of Csirmaz cite{CL}. We will also study the information ratio of two other families $C_{m}times C_{n}$ a...
متن کاملOn independent domination numbers of grid and toroidal grid directed graphs
A subset $S$ of vertex set $V(D)$ is an {em indpendent dominating set} of $D$ if $S$ is both an independent and a dominating set of $D$. The {em indpendent domination number}, $i(D)$ is the cardinality of the smallest independent dominating set of $D$. In this paper we calculate the independent domination number of the { em cartesian product} of two {em directed paths} $P_m$ and $P_n$ for arbi...
متن کاملHamilton cycles in prisms over graphs
The prism over a graph G is the Cartesian product G2K2 of G with the complete graph K2. If G is hamiltonian, then G2K2 is also hamiltonian but the converse does not hold in general. Having a hamiltonian prism is shown to be a good measure how close a graph is to being hamiltonian. In this paper, we examine classical problems on hamiltonicity of graphs in the context of hamiltonian prisms.
متن کاملThe Merrifield-Simmons indices and Hosoya indices of some classes of cartesian graph product
The Merrifield-Simmons index of a graph is defined as the total number of the independent sets of the graph and the Hosoya index of a graph is defined as the total number of the matchings of the graph. In this paper, we give formula for Merrifield-Simmons and Hosoya indices of some classes of cartesian product of two graphs K{_2}×H, where H is a path graph P{_n}, cyclic graph C{_n}, or star gra...
